Retrobike National Event Series: Rd 2 Thetford Aftermath

I don't know what it could be but people crashed into me three times during the day. For the first one I performed a perfect 'stoppie' :shock: The second was a Letmetalktomark SPD moment and the third time Letmetalktomark had a strange magnetic attraction to my bike.
 
Must be your magnetic personality REKIBorter :LOL:

Three pages and hardly any pictures yet :shock:

Mind you it'll take jonnyboy666 a week or two to wade through the 1000 (give or take a few) he took :LOL:
 
he just seemed to be wanting to be lying in the ground!
someone please, please say they got at least 1 photo of jonny'dave bailey'boy666 or we'll never hear the end of it! looking forward to the action shots
 
The first crash on the fire road was rather bizzare. I was a few bike lengths behind TedC when his chain started jumping about and he slowed. Having none existant 40 year old drum brakes i decided to start braking only for the bloke on the modern disc braked Giant to run into the back of me. I looked around to see him fall and then several other riders ride in slowmotion into him. There was a delay as his disc had hit the rear mech of my bike and taken a chunk out of it, which needed filing down. Luckily DSP had his manicure kit handy and they were soon on the way.
 
Here are my measly picture offerings :oops:

Guess who was 1st to arrive !
